She nods. “I really want this wish to come true.”
I run the pad of my thumb over her bottom lip before I kiss her softly. I want to make it come true. I want to make every single one of her wishes a reality because I’m falling in love with her.
Her lips partbut the only sound that escapes is a moan so quiet I have to still my breath to hear it.
I’m on top of her. My forearms are bracketing her head, my chest pressed against hers as I fuck her slowly.
We’re in her bed tonight. She insisted and I didn’t argue.
I just wanted to be with her, kiss her and touch her.
“I’ll never forget tonight.”
I slow the pace of my thrusts even more. “I won’t either.”
Her hands glide down my back, reaching for something, trying to pull me closer. “I love how you make me feel.”
I bury my face in her neck to hide the onslaught of raw emotions I feel.
“Matilda,” I say her name against her soft skin. “You’re incredible.”
Her hips circle as I drive into her again.
“This is what it’s like to make love.” She heaves out a ragged breath.
I kiss the side of her neck again and again as I stroke my cock deeper with each lunge.
She clenches around me and as she comes, I pull back, cup her face with my hands and stare into her intense blue eyes.
My control shatters at the sight of her. I climax, making a noise so twisted with both pain and pleasure it carries her straight into another orgasm.
CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR
Tilly
“He’s your boyfriend.”Kate looks over at a group of kids lined up by the zoo’s entrance. We’re sitting on a bench enjoying the mid-morning sunshine. “You can call him your roommate or your lover or whatever you want, Tilly, but the man is your boyfriend.”
Whatever he is, we had an incredible night together.
After we made love, we slept in each other’s arms until Sebastian had to leave before dawn.
I got out of my bed and sat on his while I watched him get ready for work.
I soaked in every movement of his body, every word he was saying. I wanted to etch it all into my mind.
I fell back asleep in his bed after he left. When I woke up I showered in his bathroom, using his shampoo and body wash. I was relaxing in my robe when my best friend called to invite me for coffee since it’s her day off too. I got ready quickly, choosing a pair of jeans and a red blouse before I straightened my hair and headed out the door.
“Nothing has changed, Kate,” I say even though, for me, everything has changed.
I’ve fallen in love.
I realized it for the first time last night on the roof when we saw the shooting star.
I wished for a lifetime with him.
It brought a tear to my eye and when he kissed me tenderly afterwards, I felt a sense of calmness I’ve never experienced before.
She turns to look at me. “You’re in love with him.”
